XPilotNT Newbie Page

Click on one of the servers so it is highlighted. I recommend that you pick one of the ones
that has people playing on it; particuarly hstud8.cs.uit.no (in Europe) or worf.ifp.uiuc.edu
(in the States). These people will enjoy blasting a newbie to pieces and you won't much enjoy it,
but you can verify that your network is working.

Click the Join or J button

This will launch XPilotNT and open a big empty window with the XPilotNT splash panel on it.
The bottom line of the splash panel will tell you the status of making a connection.
Try to note the last thing this line says if you write me.
